At 8 a.m., many pandas were still sleeping; the lights in the indoor enclosures weren't even on yet. Going to see Hua Hua in Hall 6 required queuing for over two hours. I think we should change our strategy for visiting these places, otherwise we won't have a very satisfying experience.
Definitely worth a visit. Lots to see. Can be busy when the pandas are out and can be noisy which disturbs the pandas but they have people to tell the crowd to be qbe quiet.

In the morning, take a ride-sharing service. Don't do what some netizens suggest and climb down from the highest point; that way you won't be able to complete the loop. Autumn water levels are very low; summer has more rain and is more spectacular. On the way back, exit from the South Gate to see the bioluminescent plankton. The train to Lidui is extremely crowded; it's best to take a taxi.
Everything is good, except booking process. I can’t select multiple tickets in Trip.com. I need to book 3 tickets separately, waste time, not make tourist convenient.

Despite being mentally prepared, I was still awestruck by the experience.
A mysterious civilization from 5000 years ago, with so many amazing unsolved mysteries.
An art style unlike any other before or since, exhibits of bizarre and fantastical forms.
There was even a sun-shaped artifact resembling a steering wheel, a bronze vessel with a grill-like, turtle-shell-shaped mesh, and a terracotta pig's head that looked like a piggy bank...
A truly eye-opening and mind-blowing journey!
Xiao Hao was a very enthusiastic and excellent guide. Because of our schedule, we had to finish early, but he even sent us the follow-up videos of things we missed or didn't hear carefully. He was fantastic and highly recommended!

With limited time to catch my flight, I only had a hurried one-hour visit to Du Fu Thatched Cottage. The entire garden is vast and exquisitely arranged; even disregarding Du Fu's historical significance, it's well worth a visit, not to mention seeing the thatched cottage battered by the autumn wind.
It's a great place for a stroll, you could easily treat it like a park. With its small bridges, flowing water, and bamboo groves, it's perfect for relaxing. I think the ticket price is a bit expensive. May it shelter all the poor and needy, bringing them joy.

We had a truly meaningful visit to the Chengdu Wuhou Shrine. Walking through the beautifully preserved grounds, we really enjoyed learning about the history of the Wei kingdom and the legendary figures we grew up hearing about — Zhuge Liang, Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.The exhibits were informative without being overwhelming, and the storytelling around each hero made the whole place feel alive. It’s quite amazing to stand where so much history took place and see how the legacy of the Three Kingdoms era is honoured.Overall, a very enriching and memorable experience. Highly recommended for anyone who loves history or just wants to soak in some real cultural heritage.
The Wuhou Temple is definitely worth a visit. Teacher Wu You's explanations were also very vivid and engaging, bringing the characters from the Three Kingdoms period to life. To add to the enjoyment, she also interspersed some historical anecdotes. The entire tour was very lively and interesting, and we learned a great deal. The only slight regret was that some children couldn't handle 2-3 hours of guided tours. I hope the tour leader can suggest a more efficient arrangement of group members in future itineraries. Thank you.

The Leshan Giant Buddha, also known as the Lingyun Giant Buddha, or more formally, the "Lingyun Temple Giant Maitreya Stone Statue of Jiaozhou," is located on the east bank of the Minjiang River in Leshan City, Sichuan Province, beside Lingyun Temple, at the confluence of the Dadu River, Qingyi River, and Minjiang River. The Buddha is a seated Maitreya Buddha statue, 71 meters tall, and is the largest cliff-carved stone statue in China. Construction of the Leshan Giant Buddha began in the first year of the Kaiyuan era of the Tang Dynasty (713 AD) and was completed in the nineteenth year of the Zhenyuan era (803 AD), taking approximately ninety years.
The Buddha's head is level with the mountain, measuring 14.7 meters high and 10 meters wide, with 1051 hair buns and ears 7 meters long. Carved into the mountainside overlooking the river, it sits majestically, exuding a solemn and imposing aura. On the cliff faces along the river to the left and right of the Buddha are two guardian deity statues, each over 16 meters tall. To the right of the Leshan Giant Buddha lies a winding ancient plank road, a construction and pilgrimage route left over from the Tang Dynasty's carving of the Buddha. Carved along the sheer cliff, it twists and turns nine times, its path incredibly steep. After the Buddha was completed, a seven-story pavilion (some say nine or thirteen stories) was built to cover it, then called the "Great Buddha Pavilion" or "Great Image Pavilion." However, the pavilion was repeatedly built and destroyed. The Leshan Giant Buddha is a testament to the wisdom of the ancient Chinese people and a miracle in world cultural history.
The Leshan Giant Buddha is world-renowned. The area is where three rivers converge. It is a land of outstanding people and beautiful scenery. The food and scenery are pleasing to the eye. The high-speed rail and expressways provide convenient transportation. The area offers warm service for all aspects of life.

Worth the visit i walk up and down took me 5h doing the loops. Worth the journey with all the temple.
Qingcheng Mountain is definitely worth a visit! Remember to buy a bamboo pole at the foot of the mountain beforehand, as the journey is long and the mountain path is rugged. However, the joy of climbing lies in the exercise and self-improvement. The moment you reach the summit, you'll feel it was all worthwhile. We didn't take the cable car at all, visited several filming locations from Journey to the West, and spent a total of 5 hours going up and down the mountain. It was so much fun!

This is a highly recommended hotel. The receptionists and staff were very welcoming and friendly. The hotel has a Japanese-style hot spring hotel feel, with spacious rooms and comfortable amenities. The only downside was that the hot spring bath was only available during certain hours. It was a real shame I couldn't enjoy it.
ถ้าใครร่างกายแข็งแรงระดับนึงแนะนำให้มาครับยิ่งเดินเข้าไปข้างในยิ่งสวย ถ่ายรูปสนุกไม่ติดคนแน่นอน อยากให้มาเร็วๆจะได้เดินถึงบริเวณทุ่งหญ้าด้านในสุดครับ ถ้าใครเวลาน้อยสามารถเดินจนสุดทางเดินไม้ก็ได้ครับ แต่เวลาเดินกลับอย่าลืมเผื่อเวลานะครับ ขากลับขึ้นบันไดกันเหนื่อยมาก

A very nice zoo with a beautiful environment and lush greenery. Surprisingly, there are many pandas, which are especially cute. It's conveniently located next to subway line 2 and is suitable for bringing children to see the giant and red pandas.
Yes, it was stunning. Lots of pandas and other animals. Plus 24 RMB is such good value.

Bipenggou is like a treasure trove meticulously sculpted by nature, with snow-capped mountains soaring into the clouds, lush forests, and crystal-clear lakes like jewels, every place of which is captivating.
Followed an itinerary found on xhs to explore the park. Using the 电瓶车 is a definite must as the park is very big with loads of walking. Suggest to also request to stop at 卓玛滩 on the way down for lesser crowds and beautiful unblocked views. Highly recommended park - my fave compared to huanglong and jiuzaigou!
